Hope that the parts still work.
If not, replace them if they're still under warranty

Let it dry for a week, if you spilled it when it was off and haven't turned it on since, it shouldn't have any damage.

How can you spill water on your desktop?
A laptop and I can understand, but desktop?

Then, let it dry for excessive amounts of time, and hope for the best.
You can also try using rice, just for kicks.

Desktop.
When you're doing your normal stuff on the computer, you may want to indulge yourself. Some people have their computer towers lower than their desk (like me), so if they happen to move their elbow in the wrong spot or whatever....yeah.

Let it dry. I've spilled water on stuff. Drying it works. If it was a sugar drink it be worse, as the sugar would hurt it.
